She was only 4 in 1901 and using the name Wright......dont think she would have changed her name, under any circumstances!

Not sure anyone can help until you have some more factual info. Maybe start with the info you have certificates for, ie: how did you get to Bessie/Elizabeth?

Where is the marriage for her parents?

Hello

I have just managed to get back....havent had time to digest the new posts yet ..had to go Bollywood dacing last night!!!

She really was the unmentioned one in the family..my nana..Sarah Lawson never mentioned her and it was only a few years ago my aunt acknowledged her existence..very sad.
I know she never got on with her biological father and probably spent her childhood with the Drabbles.

Thank you so much...really mean it!!
